On Las Vegas and America

Guest Post by Alex Berenson

Sin City is becoming more like everywhere else, and vice-versa. That’s good for Vegas and bad for the United States

But it’s a dry civilizational collapse.

Last week I flew to Las Vegas to play in “The Main” – the signature event of the World Series of Poker, where players put down $10,000 to seek a first prize that this year is $12.1 million.

The tournament is still going, without me. I finished about 1600th of the 10,043 players, just short of the money line. (I didn’t spend $10,000, I won my way in for $430, so I didn’t feel so bad.)

Outside, the temperatures were close to 110, not that anyone at the tables would know. The Las Vegas Strip is among earth’s most engineered environments, a four-mile stretch of gambling palaces that keep the heat out and the money in. It is almost a shock to walk a few blocks from the Strip and see desert sand in the empty lots waiting to become hotels.

The NATO Crisis Pushing Us into War

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

I have been very busy with the whole NATO meeting and questions coming in from important sources. Fortunately, there are some who are looking at our model’s forecast. Nato has stated that while Ukraine can join the military alliance, that will only happen “when allies agree and conditions are met.” Zelensky, who I have ZERO respect for and who I see as nothing more than a war criminal and a profiteer allowing his country to be destroyed all so he can enter his dream deal with Blackrock to create the “biggest” investment opportunity in European history. Zelensky has continually criticized the “absurd” delay in joining NATO when the rules are unambiguous – NATO cannot accept any member who is at war.

Chicago Suburb To Pay Reparations

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Chicago is crumbling to the ground. What do the politicians plan to do to fix the problem? Buy votes! The Chicago upper-middle-class suburb of Evanston, Illinois, approved a $10 million reparation package in 2019. The city will now hand out $25,000 to 140 black residents over the age of 18 who lived in the area between 1919-1969. “I see it as like a test run for the whole country,” stated Justin Hansford, head of the Thurgood Marshall Civil Rights Center at Howard University.

Top Sweetener Officially Declared a Carcinogen

aspartame carcinogenic effects

Story at-a-glance

  • The World Health Organization has finally gotten around to declaring the popular artificial sweetener aspartame a potential carcinogen
  • The ruling comes from sources with WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), who said aspartame will be listed as “possibly carcinogenic to humans” in July 2023
  • I’ve been warning about aspartame’s cancer-causing potential since 2010, so you can see just how long this danger has been known
  • For over a decade, researchers have been warning of aspartame’s neurotoxicity and carcinogenicity, stating reevaluation of aspartame consumption is “urgent and cannot be delayed”
  • A 2022 large-scale cohort study found people who consumed higher levels of artificial sweeteners had higher risk of overall cancer compared to non-consumers

The World Health Organization has finally gotten around to declaring the popular artificial sweetener aspartame a potential carcinogen.1 I warned about aspartame’s cancer-causing potential on my site over 25 years ago, in my best-selling book, “Sweet Deception: Why Splenda, NutraSweet, and the FDA May Be Hazardous to Your Health,” in 2006, and in an article I wrote for The Huffington Post.2 It’s since been deleted — but you can see just how long this danger has been known.

Shanghai & Moderna Sign Medical Research Agreement

Guest Post by Kit Knightly

In yet another blow to the globalist plan for World Domination, last week the government of Shanghai has signed a “strategic cooperation agreement” with US-based pharmaceutical company Moderna.

For anyone living in a cave on Mars for the last couple of years, Moderna are an mRNA-focused research company who produced only the second ever “safe and effective” mRNA vaccine basically just a few days after Pfizer produced the first.

WASHINGTON IS BEGGING FOR A PREEMPTIVE NUCLEAR ATTACK FROM RUSSIA

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

The Washington Dumbshits are encouraging Russia to wipe out the US in a desperate act of self-preservation.

Russian lawmakers have completed an investigation into Washington’s military-related biological activities at laboratories across Ukraine on the basis of findings made public by Russia’s Radiation, Chemical and Biological Defense Troops over the past year.

Washington is working on a “universal” genetically engineered bioweapon designed to cause severe damage to enemies comparable to that of a “nuclear winter,” a Russian parliamentary commission investigating US biolabs in Ukraine has concluded.

Endgame: US Federal Debt Interest Payments About To Hit $1 Trillion

Via ZeroHedge

There was a shocking number in today’s latest monthly US Budget Deficit report. No, it wasn’t that US government outlays unexpectedly soared 15% to $646 billion in June, up almost $100 billion from a year ago…

… while tax receipts slumped 9.2% from $461 billion to $418 billion, resulting in a TTM government receipt drop of over 7.3%, the biggest since June 2020 when the US was reeling from the covid lockdown recession; in fact never have before tax receipts suffered such a big drop without the US entering a recession.

If socialism intrudes, it requires that all other religions be exterminated

The wealth created during WW2 caused the long term deterioration in our society. Until that time we believed in mutual support of our fellows through our Christian culture. Unfortunately, the boomers took the bait and followed the new Gods of self adulation and entitlement. The young people that had few observable talents resented their status in the system. They grasped socialism to throw themselves into the face of their betters for revenge. Sadly their unknowing simplicity was supporting the elite control they abhorred.

These Are The Safest Cities In America

Via ZeroHedge

The phrase “small town America” often conjures up images of white picket fences, well-trimmed lawns, and big houses. But how safe is modern-day suburbia in America?

Some of the smallest places in the country can actually be among the most dangerous. Take for example Bessemer, Alabama, with a population of around 26,000 and a violent crime rate of 33.1 per every 1,000 residents.

That said, there are many small cities that are true havens for families across the United States. Visual Capitalist’s Avery Koop uses this map to showcase the safest cities in the U.S., using FBI data and Census Bureau populations compiled by NeighborhoodScout in 2023.

Do Not Drive . . .

Guest Post by Eric Peters

It was enough that a handful of kids were killed by drivers who were unable to see them when they inadvertently backed-up over them for the federal government to mandate that every car be fitted with a back-up camera system.

It is not enough, apparently, that a number of people have been killed by defective/aging air bags to reconsider the mandate that requires every new car made be fitted with multiple air bags.

Including the three kills confirmed by Stellantis, parent company of the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram truck brands. The most recent of these reportedly occurring on May 13, when an airbag killed the front seat passenger who was riding shotgun in a 2003 Ram 1500 pick-up.

The One Chart That Explains Everything

Guest Post by Mike Whitney

Look carefully at the chart above. What do you see?

You see the development of a high-speed rail system that is unrivaled anywhere on earth. You see the actualization of plan to connect all parts of the country with modern-day infrastructure that reduces shipping costs, improves mobility and increases profitability. You see a vision of the 21st century in which state-directed capital links rural populations with urban centers lifting standards of living across the board. You see an expression of a new economic model that has lifted 800 million people out of poverty while paving the way for global economic integration. You see an industrial juggernaut expanding in all directions while laying the groundwork for a new century of economic integration, accelerated development and shared prosperity.

Is there a high-speed rail system in the United States that is comparable to what we see in China today?

No, there isn’t. So far, less than 50 miles of high-speed rail has been built in the United States. (“Amtrak’s Acela, which reaches 150 mph over 49.9 miles of track, is the US’s only high-speed rail service.”) As everyone knows, America’s transportation grid is obsolete and in a shambles.

But, why? Why is the United States so far behind China in the development of critical infrastructure?
